So i just bought this new op5 and tried installing resurrection remix. I noticed that my copy to internal storage stops midway so i tried deleting the whole data from format data. now my device has no Os and my internal storage has nothing. How do i fix this?
Copy a ROM over MTP and flash it from recovery.
I tried that but i still cant copy any successful file to the internal storage. It always stops midway and when i try to install it, its corrupted.

If you have TWRP (recovery) installed, I suspect you do, and have an OTG cable/storage you could copy a OS flash file to the OTG storage. Then boot into TWRP, mount the OTG storage and flash the OS from the OTG storage.
Oh crap i just realized otg is on the go lol. I dont have any storage tho, only the cable and my computer.
×I fixed it by installing the official oxygen os in internal storage, idk even though the copy was not complete, it worked. Im scared now to install custom os

You shouldn't be scared.
The proper clean recovery would be:
1. Flash the stock OOS recovery with fastboot
2. Boot into stock recovery
3. Sideload OOS from stock recovery
4. Erase all user data from recovery.
The instructions for the various steps are all over the place.
What i did now to install a custom rom is download it through my phone and transfer the files to internal storage. Now im running resurrection remix. BUT there's still a problem, whenever i video chat with someone they say that my camera is inverted, are you guys aware of this issue?

That's a RR issue, post on their forum.
Oh okay, the problem persist on messenger (fb app) but on viber its okay. Do you think its on RR OS? If i were to change OS what would you prefer?

Hello All,
I have terrible issue with my LG G2. I wanted to install new ROM, so I have processed Wipe in TWRP like I did tousands of times. After that I wanted to pick zip from SDCARD to install and - surprice - nothing is there. Somehow TWRP erased my entire SDCARD with ROMs, backups, photos, everything... :/
Now I can't even install new ROM.
Could you please tell me if there is any way to recover my SD card?
Thank you

To recover probably not. But you can still install rom through adb sideload or USB otg (cable + usb stick).
install drivers like this http://forums.team-nocturnal.com/index.php/topic/1362-how-to-adb-fastboot-in-windows-xp-7-81/
then use adb push romname.zip /sdcard
Hi there, I have an Axon 7 with LineageOS that was working like a charm until I rebooted it today. It was in the normal lineage OS boot animation with the blue circle moving from right to left, except it never stopped. Now after trying a few more times, it just keeps playing the animation except the phone will vibrate slightly every several seconds. The phone is encrypted but that hasn't been a problem. When I reboot to TWRP, it says Unable to mount storage.
I tried wiping Cache and Dalvik / ART Cache, but this didn't help. Finally, I do have a backup from 7-20-2017 but I'd rather not have to go back to that...
Any recommendations?

So you can't see the internal storage from TWRP? I'm guessing encryption actually plays a part here. Formatting data is probably the best course of action, though you should flash magisk or superSu if you do, to get rid of encryption. But you obviously lose everything that's on the internal storage.
Maybe make a system and boot backup and clean flash Lineage. Like, wipe system and caches, then flash the bootloader, modem, LOS and whatever else you flash

Is it easier to just use the backup I have currently? If so, what are the steps necessary for that (sorry for newb questions, haven't messed with it in a while)
EDIT: Also, TWRP claims decryption is successful when it is loading up.

Again. Can you see the internal storage?
Don't restore the backup. Your problem is basically either on /system (clean flash of the ROM will do) or on /data (complete format of data is needed). So try the non destructive one first

I don't see any storage folder. So if I want to install the latest LOS and frankly just start from scratch, can I follow the guide here https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/axon7/install#installing-lineageos-from-recovery starting from "Installing LineageOS from recovery"? Will I still need to install something to wipe the encryption?

What? No... That's for normal phones. How did you manage to install LOS without knowing that you need the univ. bootloader and modem?
So, you can't access the internal storage via the file manager on TWRP i'm guessing.
Wipe - Format data, after that flash the Universal bootloader, modem, LOS, Magisk, GApps. Magisk takes care of dm-verity and disables encryption. Don't try to uninstall it though or your internal storage will get encrypted as soon as you do. But if you want to change ROMs you can just fpash it before booting and it won't ger encrypted.
Hello everyone.I have a problem with twrp.So I rooted and install twrp plus magisk.All went well.I downloaded pixel experience, and when I try to flash it with twrp, I do not not find, it is nowhere.And I have no file download, media, etc, etc ....

Seems that you have a wrong twrp that can't read your internal storage. Have you used latest blu spark twrp recovery for example and formated internal storage maybe?
Don't know if it might help you, but I've got a similar problem a while ago.
My internal storage suddenly was at 0 MB and all was "gone".
What helped in my case was to simply turn off the phone, then boot into fastboot mode with holding power and volume up, choosing recovery with the volume rockers and then - magically - everything was in place.
Which version of TWRP are you using? Did you format (not just wipe) your internal storage?
And how did you wipe? With the advanced function in the wipe section or did you just swipe to wipe?
Hi Guys,
It's all in the title really, I have tried rolling back from the latest MIUI stable rom 20.1.9_v11-10 to my previously run V11.0.2.0 , this got my phone (mi9t) stuck in a bootloop. After going into recovery mode, I have realized the internal storage folders are all messed up, with the folders names showing in an odd combination of number and letters (Something like: 9KJJGDKJ).
The phone still mounts via USB to the laptop, by I'm unable to transfer any files to the internal storage. And as such, I'm currently unable to flash it with a ROM.
I'd appreciate any advice on this, hopefully one that would also help me salvage the files and data I have on my internal storage.

For backup have you tried running adb command "adb pull /sdcard _(here specify any location in your pc such as C:\x\) from CMD when in TWRP? And for flashing ROM you can use "adb push (ROM zip location and destination such as C:\x\anyrom.zip /sdcard/)" and flash ROM .zip from your sdcard root in TWRP AFTER factory reset and wipe system from TWRP. Remember factory reset will erase your internal storage. Hope it helps. Good luck.

Well, it looks like you phone is encrypted and the only way is to format data, and did you format data before doing the downgrade?
Do you have TWRP?
You need to format data, internal memory encrypted.
Boot to TWRP
Format DATA
Reboot to TWRP
Transfer xiaomi.eu rom and flash
Reboot

I would try another recovery, sounds like something is corrupt with the twrp version. Have you tried Orangefox?
I had the same problem. Only thing that works is formatting data. A different twrp wont work. I tried 3 different versions all the same.
Thanks guys, already formatted my sd card yesterday and then I was able to re-flash the Android Q update.
My data is lost tho. Thank you all for your input here.

Hello all,
My apologies if this has been asked before. A while back I successfully installed LineageOS 14 on my S4 i9505.
I would like to install the newer version of LineageOS but I am not sure on how to do this if I have already installed an older version.
I would like to do a clean install, aka reformatting the phone with the latest version.
Do I have to reformat the device first to the original officially supported manufacturer's Android version (Android Lollipop) or is there a way to reformat the device directly to the newer version of LineageOS? How can I do this?
Can somebody please help me with this?
Just download the rar file that contains the latest version of lineageOs, flash it together with the gapps nano or pico, the clean installation is to do wipe data, wipe cashe and wipe internal memory, only leave external memory and usb otg unchecked

Thanks for the help. Where do I put the lineageOS and gapps files? I don't have an external SD card. I recall using a PC software back then but is it also possible to flash the ROM without using the PC and without having an SD card?

I read that clean installation (wiping internal memory) is also possible using a usb stick with the rom connected to the device through OTG without the need of an external SD card. Is this correct?

Yes, you can have the ROM, GApps etc in any other external drive which can be connected with ur device in TWRP so you can be able to flash it.
You can also wipe everything first and then connect your device to PC while u are in TWRP and transfer the ROM, GApps etc to your clean Internal Storage and then flash.

Ok I've got a problem.
So I've clean installed LineageOS 17.1 for the S4 I9505 along with GApps pico through OTG (from a previous older LineageOS version 14.1) after wiping internal memory, system, Dalvik cache and cache. The installation went succesfull but the phone now infinitely keeps rebooting back into TWRP recovery mode after a long while of showing the LineageOS 17.1 loading icon. Even though I have selected to reboot the System. Using TWRP 3.2.3-0.
- Tried reinserting the battery and boot into Download mode and then cancel but this also doesn't break the loop.
- Wiping Davlik as well as cache also didn't break the loop.
What gives?

Be sure you are on the latest Modem & Bootloader.
Download ROM and GApps Pico ARM and move them on your external drive.
Reboot to TWRP:
Select Wipe > Advanced Wipe
Select Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Cache and then Swipe to Wipe.
Connect your device while you are in TWRP with your External Drive which has the ROM and GApps and transfer them on the clean Internal Storage.
Flash ROM and GApps (Pico)
Go back and select Wipe > Format Data > type yes [All your data into Internal Storage will be lost]
Reboot Enjoy!
